Erie High School

Erie High School serves students in the heart of Erie, a working-class lakeside city that has faced its share of economic challenges over the years, and those broader community struggles are reflected in the school's academic profile, which sits near the bottom of Pennsylvania high schools. That said, Erie itself has a resilient spirit, with a tight-knit community, access to Lake Erie, and a downtown that has seen some revitalization efforts in recent years. Families who are weighing their options here would want to carefully consider supplemental support and extracurricular opportunities to round out their student's experience.
